Only found this lovely restaurant on our second to last night, which was a shame. Ate outside in November in a lovely courtyard. The pork stew was exceptional and we will definitely be back.

Lovely, cosy restaurant, a bit off the beaten track but worth the search. Family run and the recipes reflect the "what your grandma would cook" vibe. One of the best meals I have ever eaten while on holiday. Staff were friendly and very helpful with...my gluten free requirements. No separate gf menu but there were very few dishes I could not eat. I had a pork stew which was served with potatoes & was assured that I could have more if I wanted. Husband had a ham & cheese stew with crusty bread which was very good. Large portion sizes so a pudding was not needed. Wines were more than acceptable. Very reasonable prices as well. We will return next timeMore
This place really is first class and the staff/owners are so friendly and welcoming. My wife and I visit here on our twice a year trips to The Algarve. The menu is so different to where the average tourist would want to eat that I...suspect many people are missing out on a something special. Great food (not just the home made stews) good wine, lovely atmosphere and friendly staff....cant wait to get back there next year.More
Traditional Portuguese cuisine, nice atmosphere, good food friendly staff, plentiful portions, worth a try, might have to book as seems popular
Came here for a meal with my wife and friends. Restaurant is in a quiet location, decor is very minimalist and looks really quirky. All 4 of us absolutely loved our meals. The 3 mixed grills were brilliant and the beef stew was amongst the...best we’ve tasted ( and were from Liverpool). Service was really quick and the staff very attentive. I can highly recommend this restaurant and when we come back to Albufeira, we’ll definitely be coming back here.More
The location was good, it was in a peaceful area and walkable from our hotel. We got there and ordered in good time however it took at least 40 minutes for the starters and about hour for the mains. The only that was quick was...the waitress when I provided the feedback of the long wait. I wouldn’t recommend or go againMore
Nice location, smallish menu, but good choices (fish & meat). Friendly staff & nice ambiance. Good value for money, definitely revisit.
It was Ok nothing special. Some meat on the mixed grill was quite tough. One of the stews a celery stick wrapped in ham in a cheese sauce. Not great to be honest Beer wasn't cold. My partner did love the wine however.
Visited here three weeks ago and was very disappointed. Just cannot understand all the positive reviews. Perhaps we were unlucky? Bit of a hipster joint to be honest. If you don't mind waiting for ages to be served this place could suit very well. Staff...seemed clueless and overwhelmed. Tried a fillet steak which was both below standard quality and not cooked as I requested being nothing like medium and more like the sole of my shoe. We also had to ask for steak knives and were treated as though this was some bizarre and uusual request. And to cap a thoroughly forgettable experience the beer I ordered was warm. Simple enough to get right surely? Maybe anything other than a stew is beyond them in which case the menu needs to reflect that fact. Regular visitor to Albufeira but will never return here. Why didn't I complain on the night? Because I'm on a well deserved holiday and have better things to do than argue. Who needs the hassle? Steak, chips and a beer are hardly Michelin choices I know but should be easy enough to knock together. Another couple who left just ahead of us overheard our conversation outside and stopped to agree with us. It serms they had much the same experience.More
Absolutely gorgeous place. It was recommended to us by my parents who've been here a few times before. We had our 1 year old daughter with us and she absolutely loved the baby stew. The atmosphere was so relaxed and a gorgeous setting. Myself and...my partner commented on it a few times throughout our meal about how peaceful and calming it was. The staff were amazing, so friendly and brilliant with our little girl. Will definitely be back when in Albufeira again.More
Amazing restaurant, visited with family , I have coeliac disease and the owner was very knowledgeable on the gluten free options on the menu and even double checked with the chef to be 100% sure, fully recommend
I decided to try this place because it had amazing reviews. In my honest opinion, this place is overrated. We had to wait over an hour to get our food. My partner was very reluctant to eat at this restaurant because it's not his type...of food but i forced him because of the great reviews. Boy, do i regret it! I ordered the pork stew which was nothing special and the potatoes were very bland. Their roasted potatoes were basically boiled. The stew tasted very sweet. I could not finish all my food ( because food was late and i lost appetite and food lacked taste) and the waiter was rude when i asked for a bill before finishing my food. I am seriously failing to understand how this place got such good reviews.More
Just lovely, had the pork stew and my husband had the beef, we both thought the pork was the best but both were lovely, definately worth a visit, a very pretty garden area the staff were wonderful.
Was disappointed, unfortunately! Service was slow. Starters arrived well before our drinks, even the water, a good 30 mins after we sat down. Then we we’re charged extra, but just wanted to leave at the end of the evening. The staff seemed distracted
Visited here based on other TripAdvisor reviews. Food is amazing, we had the salmon and steak. We sat outside in the lovely garden area. Make sure you book before arriving to avoid disappointment.
